16．解析：it 考查代词。Legend has it that是固定句型，意为“据传说”，故填it。

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。填字游戏和锻炼只是改善记忆最好的几个习惯。文章介绍了提高记忆的其他方法。
16．解析：truly 考查副词。设空处修饰动词give，应用所给词true的副词形式。故填truly。

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇新闻报道。敦煌是联合国教科文组织世界遗产莫高窟的所在地，北京国家对外文化贸易基地正举办一场关于莫高窟元素的展览。
16．解析：a 考查冠词。分析句子结构并结合句意可知，UNESCO World Heritage Site和the Mogao Grottoes构成同位语，空处填入不定冠词表泛指，即“一处联合国教科文组织世界遗产地”，且UNESCO的发音以辅音音素开头，故填a。
17．解析：on 考查介词。on display“展出”，是固定搭配。
18．解析：that/which 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，先行词为caves，且所填词在从句中作主语，故填that/which。
19．解析：covering 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处需用非谓语动词作定语，cover与主语The exhibition area为逻辑上的主谓关系，故填covering。
20．解析：relics 考查名词复数。根据“50 sets of”可知，此处应用名词复数形式。故填relics。
21．解析：restored 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，此处是非谓语动词作定语修饰grotto，restore与grotto是逻辑上的动宾关系，故填restored。
22．解析：has held 考查动词的时态。在“It is the first/second/third/ ...time＋从句”结构中，从句中的谓语动词用现在完成时；又因the Dunhuang Academy为第三人称单数，故填has held。
23．解析：collection 考查名词。空处作had completed的宾语，应用其名词形式，且此处特指268个石窟的数字采集。故填collection。
24．解析：widely 考查副词。空处修饰形容词available，应用副词widely。
25．解析：but 考查连词。not only ...but also ...“不但……而且……”，是固定用法。
